allowed everyone to recharge and relax. On Jan. 16

mid the cheers
from the spirited
crowd, the Trojan
football team burst
through the Arrowhead defense for a
first down. To bring the home fans to
an upbeat roar, senior Paul Mommaerts yelled for victory alongside
the cheerleaders.
"As the Trojan, I presented myself
as a fearless warrior, but at the
homecoming game, I got to lead the
'Hail Tremper' cheer! I was psyched
because there were so many more
people at the game," said Mommaerts, grinning.
Although Hartland won 17-28,
team pride reigned supreme.
''The fact that we were hanging
with the number-two team in the
state for the first half gave me more
to cheer about. I yelled so much
with the cheerleaders that I lost my
voice," said junior Craig Granger.
While the screams and announcer's comments rang through the air,
some students' thoughts drifted to
the upcoming night.
"A friend and I decided to go to
the dance the Wednesday before,
and I didn't have time to set a nail
appointment. So, I brought all the
supplies with me to the game and
painted my nails while they played!"
said senior Liesl Stamm.
Decked out in trendy spaghetti
strap dresses and stylish suits, students grabbed their dates or galloped to the gym stag for "Autumn
Bliss" and dancing.

Homecoming

"All the exchange students from
Germany were at the dance. They
were really excited because they
had never experienced a Homecoming before. Anja, the girl who stayed
with me, went crazy on the dance
floor! When the dance was ending, I
told her that we only had three minutes left. She insisted on going back
and dancing for two more," said
senior Kellie Groves.
From Wolfenbuttel, Kenosha's
sister city, German students participated in a Homecoming coronation, bonfire, parade, football game
and dance, but one lucky guy got a
taste of something else.
"I danced with one of the
exchange students, Marcus Effe. It
was the first time he had ever
danced with a girl," said junior
Kxystal Tallman.
Spending the night among good
friends proved to be the biggest
crowd pleaser. Like senior Colleen
MacCready, students went out of
their way to make sure their
friends had a special night.
"It was Krissy Kahne's birthday,
and we were planning to do something special. Before the dance, we
all went to Marco's up in Racine.
We had a prime rib buffet, and
each got a slice of cheesecake.

Los Del Rio chartstopper. According to Billboard magazine, "Macarena" was the number one single for the year.

Then all of us sang 'Happy Birthday' to her," said MacCready.
On the grounds surrounding
Pleasant Prairie Elementary, students had prepared for the semiformal dance by bumping and
grinding at the bonfire on Oct. 5.
"It was too fun! We all just went
buck wild. Vinnie Zarletti even
wore a bright orange suit. They
didn't play my favorite song, 'Footloose' but that's OK. What was
nice was that for once everyone
was getting along," said junior
Mike Frieman.
By crossing social and international borders, Homecoming
brought students together like
peanut butter and jelly. Like
Rocky and Bullwinkle. Like two
turntables and a microphone.

good," said junior Craig Granger.
Upon receiving Classics, students
had a specific order in which they
paged through it.
"First, I checked to see what pages
I was on and read articles on those
pages. Then, I looked at a certain
full-length picture of a certain someone standing next to the Pepsi
machine," said senior Megan Covelli.
Besides checking to see if their
eyes were closed or their hair was
sticking up in any pictures, some
students played the number game.
"I went straight to the index to see
how many times I was in the book.
It's a contest with my friends. There's
no prize, but it's kinda fun," said
senior Brad Kostreva.
Leafing through Cool By the Blue
enticed students to read eye-catching print, copy and heads.
'The articles in the student picture section were about stuff I didn't
even know was going on. I especially
liked the story on body piercing and
tattoos. I didn't realize that so many
people felt so many different ways
about it," said junior Heather Ols.
To keep up with trends, students
made a beeline for specific sections.
"My favorite part was the story
about Sub-Deb. I looked at the
dresses in the pictures to figure out

what to wear for this year's dance,"
said junior Liz Baniere.
Scoping out the pictures scattered
across the cafeteria tables took
longer than students expected. After
picking up their yearbooks, students
could buy as many pictures as they
could carry for $2.
'We wove through every table in
the room, and I got a bunch of pictures for people from other schools.
What I really wanted was one of me
doing a back tuck from cheerleading
during a basketball game. I couldn't
find it anywhere. I even had other
people looking through all the tables
while I looked in a huge box!" said
senior Melissa Reinke.
To make sure that every student
received his yearbook, Classic
staffers stayed in at lunch and
after school for a couple of weeks
to hand out the 208-page historical record.
"When I looked at it, I turned to
my section right away to see all the
work I'd done. It upset me that the
plant forgot part of a page, but I
really liked how the section
looked. Honestly, it felt amazing to
see something I did in the hands of
1,000 people," said senior '96 Editor Andrea Forgianni.
Like the Pied Piper, news of yearbook delivery lured students and
graduates alike to trek through
mounds of snow during the frigid
Thanksgiving break. To capture their
copies of Cool by the Blue, over 400
grads came back one more time.

e cro"W"d as the cafeteria

again fades int a castle of olde
nticipating the
renowned and dignified production
of Ye Olde Englishe Christmasse
Feaste, many anxious patrons flooded into a stately
medieval castle knowing they
would not leave disappointed.
"Everybody loves the Feaste
because the atmosphere makes
them feel part of it. Everything
that's going on around them adds
to the overall experience," said
senior wench Faelyn Molette.
The food served at the Feaste
was the biggest expense of the
$40,000 budget. The caterer, Ron
Buck, brought a staff of four people and the food. Another big
expense was costuming. Jan
Wilkinson has sewed, inventoried

and repaired wardrobes for the
Feaste for the past six years.
"It makes the costumes more realistic and keeps them in good condition. The rental of the lights and the
food itself is a big expense," said
senior Dave Wilkinson.
Heather Prima had taken responsibility for staging and lighting for
eight years. The Feaste was a very
big production, and lighting alone
cost about $1,000.
"The atmosphere of the Feaste
was nice and relaxed, I really enjoyed
it. The food was great, and I loved the
entertainment. The way they constructed the staging was pretty neat.
It was really dark and realistic," said
junior Drew Farley.
One of the many qualities that
made the Feaste so popular was the
staging and settings. Crews trans-

formed the cafeteria into a castle.
"All the staging brought out
the spirit of the Feaste and of the
time period. The room became a
medieval-times court. I was really
impressed with what they were
able to do with an ordinary cafeteria," said junior Eric Phillips.
There were unique benefits for
the many pages, wenches, jesters,
jugglers, tumblers, fencers, brass
players, string players, recorder
players, harpsichord players, Irish
dancers, Madrigal singers and others involved in the Feaste.
"There's a camaraderie they
develop for one another in the
groups. There's a feeling of pride
and prestige in doing something on
a grand scale and doing it incredibly
well," said adviser Kurt Chalgren.
A major event for Kenosha during
the Christmas season, the Feaste
promoted a very positive feeling
about the city to busloads of people
from high schools all over the state,
and even a tour bus from Iowa.
Nearly 1,350 people came to see the
presentation of the Feaste.
As the show came to a close, the
audience rose in unison to join the
Madrigal singers in carols, savoring
the warmth of the season. A tradition of 22 years, the Madrigal
Feaste fostered community spirit.
!splaying curming skills and coordination, junior jugglers Tirn Overocker and Chris Allen toss pins
back and forth on the stage. The
jugglers entertained the crowd by
tossing to anxious children. This was the first
year jugglers pert"ormed an on-stage act.

as "The Snow Balf'
Winter Formal took place at the Brat
Stop on Jan. 25. The Brat Stop's
new banquet hall housed more than
500 fired up students for the SubDeb sponsored dance.
"The Brat Stop was a great place
to have the dance. The size of the
room was perfect, and everyone
seemed to enjoy it. Even though
I'm a senior, I hope they repeat the
site for next year," said senior
Michelle Durso.
Many of the ladies did not seem to
have a problem spoiling their dates
for this rare occasion.
"I think it's cool that girls get to
treat the guys for once. I bet they feel
sort of weird when we take them out
to dinner and we end up paying a
$100 bill. I'm just glad there is only
one dance like this a year." said
sophomore Jenna Deaton.
Weeks of planning were not rare.
Reservations for dinner and getting
finishing touches on formal wear
proved time consuming.
"My friend and I spent a month
getting everything ready. I didn't
tell my date where or what we
were going to do. He was upset
for a while, but in the end I think
he really liked the idea and had
a lot of fun," said sophomore
Cerina Marlar.
Even with the ice-covered

roads, couples braved the highways to attend fine dining places
such as Giovanni's and the Hyatt.
Local restaurants such as the Corner House, Mangia Trattoria and
the Fireside also brought couples
together for a special dinner.
"I had taken my date to the
Chancery where we ate under a
chandelier made of deer horns.
Being dressed up and looking nice, I
felt embarrassed; I probably should
have taken her to a more classy
restaurant," said senior T.J. Tifft.
Sub-Deb dance was not a fairytale night for all. Several couples
had to deal with last minute problems concerning going to dinner or
even driving back from the dance.
"On the way to the dance, I got
pulled over for going 21 over on a
deserted highway road. You'd think
the cop would let me go because we
were going to a dance, but instead
he gave me a $ l l 0 ticket. I tried to
forget about it, but it kind of ruined
the rest of my night. Then the next
morning I had to tell my mom," said
senior Scott Pederson.

the dance. Couples planning to

Angie McDermott and I drove over a
patch of thick ice and flew into a
ditch. Luckily, we were able to back
out safely onto the road. The embarrassing thing was showing up 30
minutes late to the restaurant," said
junior Paul Bogdanovich.
A special ornament memento
greeted all couples who attended
the formal event.
''The iridescent white ornament
had the names written in silver and
placed in a white bag. I enjoyed this
more than any piece of paper like
most other dances give out," said
senior Carrie Herny.

music and memories fill the air
he halls echoed
throughout the
year with talk
of Prom conflict.
Whether complaining bitterly
about the changes or fiercely defending the May 17 dinner/dance, everyone formed an opinion about "Masquerade Ball."
"Prom is what you make of it,"

o/

said junior Prom committee memb~r
Sara Herbert. 'The Prom committee
can't make Prom fun for you. All we
can do is give you a time, place and a
DJ. You have to do the rest."
One of the big changes for the
1997 Prom was venue. In years past,
the school gymnasium had served as
the dance hall, but the committee
and class advisers chose the Marriott Hotel in Racine. Some students

and KUSD Board members objected
to holding Prom outside Kenosha's
limits, but most ended up pleased.
"I loved the Marriott. It was a different atmosphere; I don't care how
much you decorate a school gym, it
is still the school gym," said junior
Rachel Thompson.
The biggest controversy flared
over dinner. The Class of 1998 hailed
"Masquerade Ball" as the first ever
required dinner/ dance, and many of
the students attending were resistant to the change.
"I didn't like being told where to
eat," said senior Joel Davis. "It
turned out okay, but the food could
have been a lot better."
In the weeks leading up to Prom,
the Kenosha News also published
articles dealing with the use of a
breathalyzer test. Any student suspected of being intoxicated would be
pulled aside and tested. A result
revealing any alcohol in the student's
system would lead to possible expulsion from school.
"At past dances people have gotten hurt because they were drunk
and acting stupid. This time, when
people weren't drunk, they were
much less rowdy, and that made the
evening a whole lot nicer," said
senior Michelle Durso.
In spite of all the controversy, once
inside the ballroom, students forgot
the problems and focused on the
dancing. As the evening came to a
close, students took mementos
of that cool, May evening. "Masquerade Ball" promenade televised on
cable channel 20 to save the prom
splendor on video.

usier than ever,
students poured
blood, sweat and
tears into drama
productions. On
Nov. 23, students
performed "Antigone" at UW-Whitewater for the Wisconsin State Theatre Competition.
"Creon wasn't the monster that
everyone thought. I felt sony for him.
He was just caught in a tough position," said senior Miles Hartley.
Because of time limits, students
cut an hour and a half play to under
thirty-five minutes.
"For the full- length play, the
guards served as comic-relief to ease
the tension. They were unchanged
by the conflict between individual
and state. Since we had to shorten
the play, we made the guards completely afraid of Creon - a reflection
of the state's mindless followers,"
said senior Liz Maher.
Whirling skirts and thumping
boots, students took Critics' Choice.
Therese Valkenaar, who played
Antigone, received an acting award.
In the spirit of Christmasse, students performed a skit about a
ghost: the ghost of Hamlet's father.
With a stab at murder and mayhem,
actors punched Shakespeare's most
famous lines in the "Fifteen-Minute
Hamlet" on Dec. 13-16 at the Christmasse Feaste.
"We delivered each line very fast
and in a totally unrealistic manner.
We did the whole play in 5 minutes,"
said senior Lerie Herrera.

Because of their rousing success
with Feaste crowds, the troupe acted
in "Remember Radio," a barber shop
concert, on March 22, by invitation
from Brian Lynch.
"We went out for curtain call and
joined all the singers on stage. Everyone sang "God Bless America," but
we didn't know the words. They
came on over two big screen 1Vs, so
we weren't embarrassed about
singing, until we noticed that we
were standing in front of the microphones," said junior Nick Leggin.
"Ho, ho, ho, Meny Christmas!" On
Dec. 19-21, "Miracle in 34th Street"
actors created Santa with a female.
"Everybody thought Mr. Parker
was crazy. But once I got all my
make-up on and into character,
nobody knew I was a girl. After the
show, a girl reached up and tried to
pull my beard off, but it didn't budge.
Her expression of shock was great!"
said senior Rebecca Hornik.
By donating $600, cast members

gave hope to the Shalom Center and
the children of Camp Heartland.
"Off with their heads!" cried the
Queen of Hearts before grabbing her
flamingo puppet for a round of croquet. While most of the animal props
were stuffed, "Alice in Wonderland"
also used a real cat and pig on April
25-27 and May 2-5.
"I never knew what the animals
were going to do. One night, the pig
bit me! Also, the times between the
scenes were strange. There was
never a blackout for me. I stood there
while the audience stared at me,"
said senior Therese Valkenaar.

"It was hard to fill out some of the
awards. They were so similar. I

said senior Joanna Binsfeld.
Racking their brains for names,
seniors questioned the validity for
awards such as Most Likely to Trash

"I didn't find any of the awards
offensive, but I didn't want to be the
recipient of some of them. They're all

s glitter sprinkled
from the bleachers, Tremper's
560 graduating
seniors said their
final good-bye to
their school years on Sunday, June 8
as they marched across the KUSD
field house stage to receive diplomas.
At this pivotal point in their lives,
many seniors had mixed feelings.
"While I'm happy and excited
about starting a whole new chapter
in my life, I am sad that I'm not going
to be seeing my friends anymore,"
said valedictorian Carrie Burns.
In a show of juvenile maturity, 11
drama seniors performed Dr. Suess'
classic children's book "Oh, the
Places You'll Go." Many seniors

found its message appropriate.
"I thought the drama presentation
was very relevant because it had a lot
to do with leaving high school and
facing what's ahead of us," said
senior Alberto Locante.
Some seniors, disregarding the
rules, squirted water guns, sprayed
silly string and threw confetti during
the ceremony. Their attitude of fun
contrasted the serious atmosphere of
the traditional ceremony.
"During the speeches, a beach ball
kept appearing in the air as the graduates tossed it around," said salutatorian Kyla Moore. "Some kid even lit
up a cigar after the tassel turning."
Five days earlier, Convocation
saw over $1 million in scholarships
bestowed upon 92 seniors, while

ragons, wizards, fairies,
queens and kings walked
around a medieval village. Store
merchants hawked passersby
on their way to jousting tournaments to try on their clothing or
to buy merchandise. Meanwhile, musicians played violins
as queens, kings and peasants
danced in a circle. For several
teens who played Renaissance
roles, going to a summer job
was a day at the Faire.
"Wilt thou giveth thine loose
change to our Nine Starving Children?' was my favorite saying
because the Nine Starving Children was the name of the tip jar. I
took home at least $40 in tips a
night," said senior Amy Fujiwara.
Everywhere in the Faire, an
assortment of shops filled the
paths. Food shops sold tempting
dishes from Italian Calzones, a
crust filled with meat and vegetables, to Sassafras, a rootbeer with
licorice extract. Other shops specialized in artwork, ceramics,
puppets, books and other crafts.
"I worked in the Queen's
Kitchen at the Ravioli booth. All
the people I worked with made our
customers think we were crazy,"
said senior Joel Dodge.
Spending long days at this
weekend job gave employees a
chance to form friendships and
perfect Olde Englishe accents
for both fun and profit.
"The closeness and great
friends were so incredibly neat. I
loved using the Elizabethan language to make fun of peasants
and wenches," said Fujiwara.
Many of the jobs at the Faire
required outgoing employees.
Torturing audience members,
mud covered actors kissed
onlookers in the Mud Show. At
the Tomato Toss, visitors threw
tomatoes at an actor who taunted them with rude comments.
Workers became accustomed to
being the center of attention.
"After a couple of summers at

the Faire, you don't get embarrassed very easily," said senior
James Sizemore.
In some Elizabethan shops, visitors experienced wearing clothes
from the 17th cenhny.
"In Hearts Delight, a clothing
booth where I worked, people
complained that they were being
hurt by being laced in a bodice so
tightly. But afterwards, they were
happy with their appearance. It
was surprising how many people
dressed in costumes that didn't
even work at the Faire," said
senior Shantae Bell.
With a blast from the past and
the spice of old English culture,
the Bristol Renaissance Faire
turned every guest into a lorde or

wanted to test the waters,"
said senior Andrea Forgianni, "to explore medicine and see
whether it was a career I wanted
to dedicate my life to."
A division of Boy Scouts of
America, the Health Careers
Explorer Post began in 1994 as a
joint effort between St. Catherine's
and Kenosha Hospital. Volunteer
Director Diana Andrekas and
Director of Benefits and Compensation Bill Johnston from
Kenosha Hospital along with
Admitting Coordinator Heidi
Steinbrenner and Security Coordinator Bob Franks from St.
Catherine's Hospital advised and
organized the group. In its second
year, the club boasted 10 student
members including sophomore
Nakisha Fletcher and seniors
Andrea Forgianni, Alberto
Locante, Melissa Meland, Amanda Weiss and Amy Zachariah.
Tirrough tours of departments
in both hospitals, as well as lectures from people such as a cardiac care nurse and a pathologist,
members learned about a variety
of medical careers.
"One of my favorites was the
gastroenterologist. I liked seeing a
kind of doctor you don't hear
about everyday," said Fletcher.
In a 1995 survey by Boy
Scouts, 72 Kenosha students

expressed interest in the field of
Emergency Medical Technology.
"Meeting the EMfs was great,
since I want to be one," said
Meland. 'We learned about their
training and even tried out some
of their equipment."
Touring St. Catherine's Emergency Department and inspecting
an ambulance let students experience medicine first hand.
'The lab at St. Catherine's was
really interesting," said Weiss. "I
saw how stuff I learned in classes
like chemistry is used in real life."
Most members gained useful
knowledge from Post activities.
'The best presentation was the
Medical Examiner's because it
was so graphic. Also, the most
interactive was the paramedics'
where we got to tape Melissa down
to a stretcher," said Locante.
Whether they discovered they
were interested in medicine or
that it did not suit them, students
found the experience eye-opening,
informative and a worthwhile
investment of time.

the bats would eat our brains out
while we were sleeping," said
senior Heidi Hackemer.
Even bats could not stop her
from spreading Christianity. In
the third world country of
Ecuador, Hackemer spent two
and a half weeks on her mission
in the early summer.
"We went to jungle stations,
tiny villages in the jungle where
the people live primitively and
churches are just developing, and
performed for the Natives. We presented musical programs and
taught them about God and
Christianity," said Hackemer. "I
loved the experience and will definitely go back. It will only be a
matter of when."
To learn about the culture of
the people of Ecuador and how to
interact without offending anyone, Hackemer attended weekly
classes at her church for four
months. At these required classes,
she also learned various Spanish
prayers and songs.
Sixteen other students from St.
Mary's Catholic Church and First
United Methodist Church gave up
nearly one-fifth of their summer to
go cross-country and help those
less fortunate than themselves.
Traveling south, these young
adults journeyed to Tennessee.
Working in groups of six, they
built and restored houses in rundown neighborhoods.
"We scraped and painted one
house and reinstalled window
frames and shutters on another
one. It was a really nice feeling to
help people in need," said senior
Karen Myers.
Through their experiences, the
students gained more than superficial knowledge.
"I grew to appreciate what I
have and gained a more spiritual
outlook towards life," said junior
Cori Snyder.

To prepare for their trips, they
held fund-raisers such as car
washes, pizza and T-shirt sales
and hot dog stands. They also
sent out reference forms to businesses, families and friends to ask
for direct donations.
"We had to raise the money
ourselves, so we fund-raised like
cats and dogs in the rain," said
senior Paul Mommaerts.
After spending a combined total
of 546 hours working to help others, the youth received the reward
of an exhilarating experience,
white water rafting at a water
reservation in Tennessee. This,
along with the fulfilling feeling of
improving people's lives, inspired
some of the youth to embark on
further missions.
'Tm going to Montana next
year. It's so awesome to experience different forms of Christianity," said Mommaerts.

Senior Kristy Jakubowski does.
Jakubowski performed as
Jenny Parsons in the opera Down
in the Valley on October 26 for the
Great Lakes Opera Company in
Milwaukee. Her character was
from southern Alabama and fell in
love with a man her father did not
approve of. Jakubowski came
across the part in an unusual and
indirect way.
"I went to audition for 1he Elves
and the Shoemaker, but they didn't give me the part because I was
too tall. They asked me why I didn't audition for another opera and
said they might as well put me in
now. They had already started
rehearsing, but I picked up the
music and worked really hard at
it, and they were impressed.
When it came time to finalize the
cast for this opera, they gave me
the part," said Jakubowski.
Jakubowski, who was the
youngest performer to get a lead,
received support from many
friends in the audience.
"Kristy's performance was
great. It was her first lead, and I
was really proud of her. Her voice
was amazing," said junior Catherine Apilado.

drive to Milwaukee four days a
week for four-hour rehearsals.
Many nights, she didn't get home
until after 1 a.m.
"It was worth it just to say I got
to do something like that. The
music is more important to me
than the acting, and that's more
stressed in opera. It seems like the
best way of expressing myself,"
said Jakubowski.
Several students discovered
that opera was not just Bugs
Bunny and a fat Viking woman
singing in another language.
"I found out that if you actually
watch an opera and try to understand what is going on, you can
get into the story and figure out
what is happening," said senior
Brad Kostreva.
Jakubowski's talent and love
for opera helped her win scholarships, and some talent agents
picked up her name. She hopes to
be performing for a long time.

DONORS

t happened to many
seniors who filled out college applications. After breezing
through expected questions such
as "Why do you wish to attend
this institution?" or "How do you
consider yourself unique?" students reached a section few
expected, and many less prepared for. This universally puzzling question went something
like this: "State any volunteer
work you have performed while
in high school."
For those who did prepare, volunteering reaped many rewards.
Although looking good in the eyes
of competitive institutions motivated interest in some, others
took the responsibility to perform
volunteer work just for the sake
of helping out others in the community.
"Working at the Shalom Center makes me appreciate all the
things I've had all of my life. I
don't just mean money and tangible things, but love and family.
It's sad to see kids who are
deprived of these things. It makes
me want to help so much. I think
that's why I go there each week,"
said senior Jenni Mundell.
Planning to dedicate careers to
medicine, volunteers caught a
glimpse of the future.
"Along with my responsibilities
of stocking rooms and performing office work, I follow the physical therapist around and ask
questions. Because of my volunteer work, I have a better under-

standing of what a physical therapist does. I am even more interested in the field," said senior
Tiffany Wood.
Volunteering introduced youth
to positive role models in their
future workplaces.
"I have gained a lot of respect
for the hard work and long hours
put in by doctors, nurses, management and directors. I realize
how useful their jobs really are,"
said senior Alberto Locante.
From a different perspective,
teens sharpened personal skills,
improving themselves through
their volunteer work.
"I have become more sociable
from volunteer work since I have
to interact with patients, visitors
and other volunteers. Also, I have
gained a general knowledge of the
floors and wings of Kenosha Hospital," said Locante.
Although reasons behind volunteering ranged from personal
growth to an impressive application, the result was ultimately
the same: providing help to those
who needed it, physically or
socially. The compensation of
knowing they made a difference
in the lives of others made them
well-paid volunteers.

wo or three thousand people murmured in anticipation. The lights dimmed. The
curtain rose ...
Over the summer, seniors Kristen Singer and Melissa Reinke
sang with the Kids from Wisconsin, an elite show group of performers ages 15-20. They also
accomplished a long-time goal.
"I've seen Kids for close to 10
years, and I always wanted to perform," said Reinke.
However, it was not easy. The
work involved a 17 -day training
camp. Putting in thousands of
hours of effort, Mr. Kurt Chalgren
has been the voice coach of Kids
from Wisconsin for 28 years.
"They eat breakfast; then they
rehearse. They have lunch; they
rehearse. They have supper; they
rehearse. Then they go to bed, and
it starts all over again the next
day," said Chalgren.
Crowds of 2,000 to 3,000 went
to the shows each year. There
were 70-90 performances plus
additional ones at the State Fair.
Audiences enjoyed the professionalism and the wholesome image of
the Kids performers.
"I think people like to see the
youth sing, and it's such an elite
group. I think it's refreshing to see
that on stage," said Singer.
This program was also quite
enjoyable for its participants.

"Oh, golly! I love the show.
When you see the kids you've
worked with perform on stage, it
feels good," said Chalgren.
Singer and Reinke auditioned
in Milwaukee. Although Reinke
was named an alternate, she said
that being an alternate this year
will give her an edge in the future.
Reaching far beyond having fun,
the advantages of being in the program proved immeasurable.
"You gain so much stage presence and learn from everybody in
the group because everyone has
such huge talent," said Singer.
They also gained lifelong friendships and memories.
"When you're talented and love
to perform, often you're an oddball
in high school. But when they get
to Kids from Wisconsin, all these
oddballs are together. It's a really
great thing to feed off each other,"
said Chalgren.
The kids in Kids shared a multilevel common bond- a love for
music, the thrill of performing,
and a professional quality from
many intense hours of rehearsal.

FOTURES

lazing orange-red heat and
cracking boards pierced the
silent night sky in rural Salem.
The sound of a pager rang out,
and a dispatcher said, "Kenosha
County to Salem Fire, you have a
call for a structure fire at 2480473rd St." Duty called three students who jumped into their cars
for the 15-minute drive to the
Salem Volunteer Fire Department
in western Kenosha County.
'The adrenaline started pumping on the way to the call. The only
thing that mattered was getting to
the site to help save someone,"
said senior Dave Wilkinson.
Every Monday Wilkinson,
sophomore Chris Siebeneich and
senior Tim Gronski trained for fire
fighting duties like practicing ladder evaluations and hose lays, or
how to store the hose on the rigs.
They got into fire fighting as part
of the Explorers program. Giving
time and dedication, they attended weekly training to gain experience in fire fighting.
"I had been on the department
about a month when we started
working on truck maintenance. I
had to grease the fittings on all the
joints under the truck. When I
came out from under the truck,
the firefighters started laughing. I
felt something in my ear that was
really gooey. It was a big glob of
grease," said Siebeneich.
Even though experienced firefighters played practical jokes,
when duty called, they switched to
a serious mode.
"I hopped up onto the back seat
of Engine 7 and headed to the call
to help Bristol Fire Department

land a Flight for Life helicopter.
We had to land it for a teenager in
a car accident at Highways 45 and
K. We set up the landing wne with
orange road cones in the middle of
Highway K. They came from the
south and flew right over my head
with a big blast of wind. They took
off and flew the young man to the
trauma center in Milwaukee," said
Gronski about a crucial run.
To find time to do this was
hard, and money did not motivate
the volunteers. The love of the job
and a possible future as a fire
fighter energized these young
men. Still, it was no Hollywood
set. They faced life and death situations. As the the fire died,
embers went from orange to
black, but the job burned on.

senior Tim Gronski sweeps the

fire prevention programs and inspections of businesses.

or most of Kenosha, the
Atlanta Olympics were
nothing but pictures coming
from a TV in their living
rooms. A few students and
faculty, however, got to see
the real thing.
"It was nice to see the whole
world come together and showcase their best athletes," said
Mr. Charles Werve.
A record breaking 197 countries competed in more than
200 events. From Dream Team
basketball to archery matches,
to diving, spectators took it all
in. Mr. Charles Bradley attended track and field events and
remembered it well.
'The night Michael Johnson
won the 200, nobody wanted to
leave the stadium. Everyone
was really pumped up because
we'd just seen Michael break a
world record and Dan O'Brien
win the decathlon. The stadium
kept blasting music; they didn't
want the crowd to leave either.
We must have stayed there
until 12:30 a.m.," said Bradley.

II

s he revels in the reality of being
at the Olympics, Mr. Charles
Bradley looks fmward to track and field
competition. Over 45 events were held
in the track and field stadium alone
over the course of the Games.

Stadiums were not the only
crowded places. People filled
the streets, and athletes mingled with spectators on a regular basis.
"I was walking down a street
and ran into the Italian
women's basketball team," said
junior Allison Fisher. "They
were friendly but didn't have
time to give autographs."
However, the Olympics were
not pulled off without problems
both great and small.
'The traffic was miserable.
My family took the train, which
was crowded like you wouldn't
believe. A couple little kids
started screaming because they
were literally getting crushed,"
said junior Ben Schmidt.
The Centennial Park bombing imposed an element of
darkness to the Games. The
explosion during a concert took
two lives and cost thousands
more their sense of security.
"I left the park about three
hours before the bomb went
off. Thankfully, I was asleep
in my room when it exploded," said Werve.
The Atlanta Olympics were
an emotional experience for all.
For those who saw the Games
up close, it was golden.

Cramming into rooms and
having some students sit on
the floor just about drove the
faculty and students bonkers.
The referendum to have
another high school built was
denied by the taxpayers and
voters of Kenosha on September 10. Still, the schoolboard
considered building a new
high school within the budget.
"People can't see me and
practically step on me!" said
senior Priscilla Pink, who
stood 4'10" without a moving
mob around her.
Trying to navigate the halls,
hordes of people poured out of
nowhere but were definitely
going somewhere at the crack
of the bell. Classrooms, and
enough of them, were also a
major concern among students and teachers.
"In one of my English
classes, a couple of the students had to sit on the floor
because of the lack of desks ,"
said senior Chrystal Birdd.
With 1,835 students in the
halls, everyone at some point
in the day experienced overcrowding somewhere. Students also felt they could get

said junior Angie Bernardy.
As people raced through
the halls, they claimed they
were repeatedly late to classes because of the crunched
hallways and stairwells. One
of the senior foreign exchange
students, Roman Rodichev,
begged to differ the negatives
of the large number of students. He came from a school
in Russia where all grades
were in one school.
'There were more opportunities for people to make friends

found out when the
wrong papers were handed
back to her. Jenny H. Wilson
found out when people challenged her to fight for no
apparent reason. Six sets of
people with the identical first
and last names confused other
students, and faculty as well,
regarding their true identity.
"I dislike having the same
name because I get called down
to the office for her things. My
report card is always wrong,
and kids know me as the other
Jaime," said Jamie L. Brown.
Most people interviewed
with an identical-name twin
said they had problems with
109. Some complained that
they sat there for up to half
an hour only to discover their
"twin" was the person truly
sought. Their attendance
records were even worse in
accuracy. Even ID numbers
did not solve all the mix-ups.
"I don't like it at all! Our
names and our ID numbers
got all mixed up, and we had
to get our ID numbers taken
all over again," said sophomore Jennifer H. Wilson.
Juniors Moore and Smith
agreed that too much confusion occurred in school. To
them, it was sort of like hearing
a first name in the hall, and

realizing that the person who
shouted it intended to get
another person's attention.
"I have to tell librarians my
birth date when I check out
books, otherwise I end up
having overdue books I never
even checked out," said a
frustrated Wilson.
Some of the students interviewed said they created nicknames to separate themselves
from the other person with the
same name and avoid some of
the confusion.
"I actually have three nicknames. My friend Abby calls
me 'double J.' My three-yearold sister calls me 'Jaim-doodles' because she thinks its
funny. My third name is SartNoogin from my friend Ashley's little brother who tried to
say Fahrfignugen," said
Jaime J. Brown.
Some examples of creative
nicknames "twins" came-up
with to avoid the ever-present
confusion at school included
Jamie L. for Jamie Lynn Brown
and Buddha for Josh Smith.

rn ressure was building.

Iii Everyone was both nervous and excited. After waiting
and hoping for so long, they
finally received the good news
they had been waiting for. The
Kenosha Sox traveling baseball
team had earned a spot to compete in the National Championships in New Orleans.
'We were so excited. It was
what we had been working for
all summer. All our hard work
and determination had finally
paid off," said sophomore outfielder Jimmy Pascucci.
The Kenosha Sox competed
in Racine, went to Shoreland
HS to play a team that qualified
to go to China and, most importantly, attended the AAU
National Championships.
"My best memory was when
we drove 16 hours in the car to
New Orleans without stopping.
When we arrived, we went to a
Denny's restaurant for breakfast and fell asleep in the
booths," said sophomore outfielder Andy Shama.
While most memories consisted of games, some of the
memories were of free time
spent at shops and clubs.
"While we were in New
Orleans, we all got to go and
visit the famous Bourbon
Street," said junior catcher
Travis Muldowney.

What propelled the Sox from
its beginnings up through a
tough national competition
was teamwork.
'We played really well together, which is what got us to the
Nationals," said junior first
baseman Chris Beth.
The Kenosha Sox enjoyed
an eventful summer. The
coaching trio of Jason
Schnaare, Bob Schnaare, and
Phil Limbach selected the
players in less than a week.
The team put up a record of 9 7 on the season while playing
in a higher age bracket than
they were supposed to. Ages
of Sox team members ranged
from 15 to 16 years.
'We all got along really well
because we have known each
other for such a long time. We
were all friends on the field as
well as off the field," said sophomore infielder and outfielder
Jason Marshall.
Although they advanced to
national competition, the Sox
met tough competition and, by
losing their first five games, fell
from further contention.

a

o celebrate after the intense
championship game, sophomores Jimmy Pascucci and Nick
Llanas run off the field in victory on

ccidents, bad news,
injuries, tests, bad
things happened. Embarrassing moments and getting lost
were nothing out of the ordinary for a Friday the 13th,
but many people felt the
superstitious day made those
moments more memorable.
According to a survey
questioning 180 students,
32% had superstitions
regarding Friday the 13th.
"On my eighth birthday,
which happened to fall on
Friday the 13th, I got lost in
my friend's neighborhood for
two hours. Then when I eventually found his house, I rode
my bike into the back of a
truck," said sophomore
Jason Tithof.
The three Friday the 13ths
during the school year were
September 13th, December
13th, and June 13th. On
those days when anything
was bound to happen, exciting and terrible things both
took odd shapes. Students
believed that a very publicized death on Friday the
13th was especially spooky.
"Tupac Shakur died," said
junior Angela Pesik. "Now I
know it's a scary date."
Some people believed that
the way a person thought or
acted influenced the type of
things that happened to them
on a Friday the 13th.
"You can count on strange
people doing strange things to
keep strange things from

strangely happening to them,"
said senior Brad Kostreva.
Superstitious students
saw the date as a bad omen.
"Tests always happen on
Friday the 13th!" said junior
Kristine Gohlke.
Another victim of the
power of Friday the 13th was
sophomore Jenny Davies.
"I had to get stitches in my
knee when I fell off a porch
into some glass," Davies said.
Coincidence explained bad
luck on any Friday the 13th to
most students. A few even
viewed it as a day of good luck.
"Anything due will get a good
grade, or the football team will
win their game on Friday the
13th," said senior Liz Maher.
Junior Amber Redlin held
similar beliefs.
"Sometimes it's my luckiest day of the year," she said.
Obviously, beliefs regarding superstitions varied
greatly. Some people believed
that evil things were really
supposed to happen on Friday the 13th; others took
their chances.

II

s he circles the upcoming Friday the 13th on a calendar,
sophomore Josh Melcher braces for
the worst. Melcher shared his
triskaidekaphobia, or fear of the
number 13, with the likes of
Napoleon, Herbert Hoover, and FDR
who refused to dine with 13 at the
table, according to the October 1995
issue of Parade magazine.

hey met in the dark, disguised as vampires,
werewolves, and wizards. Were
they members of some secret
cult? No, they enjoyed fantasy
games and met to assume new
personalities in role-playing
games or fight their mends with
Magic cards.
"I had no choice. My mends
made me learn," said junior
Jason Nelson about why he
began playing Magic cards.
No matter how they came to
play, participants of fantasy
games found an abundance of
people who shared their interests in and desire to take part
in these games.
"I enjoy role-playing games. I
get to meet a wide variety of
people. It also allows me to act,
and I can make the characters
myself," said senior Liz Maher.
In pursuit of victory, those
who played Magic collected
cards and then used them to
compete with other players.
"You and your opponents
are wizards. You each start
out at twenty life, and the
object is to get your opponent
at zero before he gets you.
You do this by casting creatures, sorceries, artifacts,
spells and enchantments,"

said sophomore Jeff Rasch.
Both fantasy and role-playing games involved extensive
concentration and determination. Those who played Magic
enjoyed not only the intellectual and competitive aspects of
their game, but also the creativity required.
"I like playing Magic cards
because it gives players a way
to compete in a friendly manner," saidjuniorJeffRhode.
Aside from their own homes,
fantasy gamers sought out and
found refuge at the V.F.W.,
Kemper Center, Chadwicks
Card Shop and the Parkside
Union to congregate with their
mends and play.
Whether they fought their
opponents with various cards
during a game of Magic or
escaped into the world of fantasy by pretending to be mystical
characters in role-playing
games, all of the players found
them to be an interesting and
worthy challenge.

ome on, are people and
their pets really alike? In
a survey of 60 sophomores, 60
juniors and 60 seniors, 126 pet
owners thought of their fourfooted friends as human with a
sense of humor, even anger.
"My cat Kitrenna is so
mean! She hisses and snorts
like a pig. She even got her
head stuck in a Kleenex box
once," said senior Shanna
Guenther.
Correspondence between
people and pets headlined the
January 1996 issue of the Utne
Reader. Utne Reader noted that
Socks, President Bill Clinton's
cat, had a name that evoked
the sort of cuddly, down-home
empathy, the untarnished
familiarity, that Clinton practiced most effectively.
"Everything I do, my cat
does. If I lay on the floor and
stretch, she'll be laying right
next to me and put out her
paws like she's stretching,"
said senior Holly Barriere.
Research indicated that
most animals understand emotion and have compassion for
their owners. Newsweek (Oct.
28, 1996) reported that that is
probably why 98 percent of pet
owners were found to talk with
their pets, just as they would

talk to a sympathetic friend.

"When I'm sad and cry, my
cat Nikko licks my face," said
sophomore Melissa Valdez.
Pets of the 90s even took
on unusually human characteristics and hobbies.
"My cat Simba likes to watch
video characters move. He sits
down and watches me play,"
said sophomore Trevor Weiss.
Pets communicated and
formed bonds with one another
similar to human friendships
or sibling rivalry.
"Normally Hawkeye and
Spot hate each other, and it's
ironic because they're sisters.
But, once when the pipes in
our house froze, we found
them huddled together. Also,
both of them will snuggle up,
warm and fuzzy, on my cold
feet," said sophomore Paige
Porter about her cats.
Oprah's talk show in September was right about people
and pets. Connections ranging
from sympathy to humor made
cats and dogs little giants in the
lives of students.

The Racine Soccer Club
Jaguars followed that motto,
boasting a record of28-6-2.
"Winning or losing, we
always played 110 percent,"
he added.
Including sophomores Lazo
Savic, Matt Coughlin, Jason
Tithof and Aaron Gould, and
Captains Mike Samer and
Andy Shama, the team played
in two international tournaments, the USA Cup in Minneapolis and the International
Friendship Cup in Denver.
"The USA Cup was the
biggest tournament I was ever
involved in, with 80 teams from
all over the world. It was great!"
said Shama.
The Jaguars, coached by
Bob Samer and Lee Pearson,
had been playing together for
about four years.
"Our strongest asset was
team unity. We played great
together on the field, and hung
out off the field," said Coughlin.
The Jaguars ranked in the
top 16 of 80 teams in the USA
Cup. During the tournament,
they outplayed the state champions of Virginia and annihilat-

ed Alaska 17-0. They finished
fourth in the Denver International Friendship Cup.
"Playing Virginia was great!
They were a lot bigger than us.
It was hard, but we played as a
team and hustled our butts
off," said Mike Samer.
The Jaguars traveled all
around Wisconsin and
Michigan, including Neenah,
Green Bay, Greenfield, Madison, Brookfield, and Kalamazoo. Along with tournaments,
the team played a regular
season in the MilwaukeeMetro A-Division.
"We practice two times a
week for two and a half hours.
To stay in top condition, we
work on ball control and conditioning with the use of cones
and flags. We also work a lot on
shooting drills," said Savic.
Traveling all over the U.S.,
the RSC Jaguars showcased
their talent. Reflecting their
overall record, the Jaguars
were a team to reckon with.

he gloomy doors loomed before the new
sophomores. Schedules in
hand, they started counting
off the days until Thanksgiving break. The "new kid at
school" experience haunted
more than 100 students that
moved into the district.
"Moving builds character,"
said sophomore Sarah Hill,
"but that doesn't make it any
easier to deal with."
For students that had parents in the military or ones
with an irregular job, moving was an all too familiar
experience.
"This is my seventh move,"
said sophomore Renee Esser.
"We used to move around a
lot because of my dad's job.
But now it is only about
every two or three years."
Both students agreed that
there were major differences between Kenosha
schools and schools they
previously attended.
"The orchestra program
and athletics are a lot better," said Esser, who was
involved in orchestra and
cross country at her previous
school as well as here.

Changing schools was difficult not only for students
new to Kenosha, but also for
sophomores entering high
school within the district.
"At Lance we weren't treated like adults at all. Here, we
are treated more like adults,
for example, having the freedom to go out to lunch," said
sophomore Ryan Hanrath.
Even with all the positives
of high school life. open
lunch and new exciting people, there were a few quirks
besides the hard classes.
"The only bad thing about
Tremper so far is all the leaks
in the roof. It is kind of funny
to see all of those buckets
and garbage cans around the
school," said sophomore
Amber Robers.
It did not matter whether
these new sophomores were
from a different state or right
here in Kenosha, these students were starting all over.

DEMAND
m
ever underestimate the
power of an open lunch!
Beginning with the Class of
2000, the privilege of an open
lunch has ceased to exist.
"Looking around the cafeteria, I think it's already overcrowded, and I can't even imagine what it'll be like next year,"
said sophomore Crystal Coots.
Whether cruisin' to Taco Bell
on Sheridan Rd or hikin' on
foot to Burger King on 80th
during lunch, a break from
school was appreciated.
"No matter if we have open or
closed campus, I actually think
more people will skip when
lunch is closed. With an open
lunch a person has a chance to
leave school for a little while,"
said sophomore Kristen Stiles.
Closing lunch hours was
ironic because the Class of '97
was the first class to have an
open lunch all three years. Now
the Class of '99 are the last
ones to get open lunch during
their high school at all.
"Even though it won't affect
me next year, it did affect me in
tenth grade, and I was glad
when they opened the lunch
hours three years ago," said
senior Sarah Eatmon.
The Class of '99 was fortunate enough to have open
lunch all of their high school
years, but they are not lucky
enough to have the familiar 55
minute classes. Next year the

Board is moving to 90 minute
classes with block scheduling.
"If students can go out for
lunch now, next year they
should be able to especially
with longer classes," said
senior Jill Otahal.
Open lunch has been closed
for four main reasons according to Principal Chester Pulaski. First, students are minors,
and the KUSD Board of Education feels responsible for students during school hours.
Second, they feel open lunch is
unsafe because gangs or drug
dealers have more access to
students. Next, educators feel
that students will use more of
their lunch hour to concentrate
on studies rather than traveling
to and hanging out at fast food
restaurants. Last, statistics
show that more students are
tardy to class following lunch
hour than at the beginning of
each day. Closing lunch hours
may help reduce tardiness.
Between the open campus
planned for block scheduling
and the closed lunch mandated
by the School Board, the controversy continued to rage.

the Class of 2000 was going to be the
only class with closed lunch next year,
the controversy still forged on.

fundamental stances to attack

snap kick. In sparring the winner is determined by valuing
kicks rather than punches.
"My most memorable tournament this year was when I
sparred my boyfriend and beat
him," said yellow belt Abruscato, "and he is a higher belt!"
Tournaments consist of
forms, breaking and sparring.
In tournaments competitors
are split up by their respective
belt and age group.
"In Tae Kwon Do I have won
maybe 40 tournaments and
lost only five thanks to my Master John Kim," said Lee.
Breaking is when a foot or
hand technique is used to
break a one-inch thick pine
board, sparring is free-fighting
with light contact and forms are
patterns of movements where
power and accuracy of technique stressed.
"I broke four boards with a
knife hand strike with my two
bare hands!" said Savic.
As these students testified,
practicing martial arts was not
just a hobby, it was a focus in
their lives which developed selfconfidence and self-control as
added benefits.

he audience sears to a
hush, and all eyes stammer to fall upon the Kenosha
Performing Arts Company.
Striding out to face the crowd,
singers of the Secret Garden in
November and Guys and Dolls
in May performed for the
gleaming faces.
"I auditioned with 'Memories'
from Cats. I was really nervous,
but Holly Stanfield and Nick
Sturino put me at ease with
their kindness and professionalism," said junior Amber
Hoskinson, who played Claire
in Secret Garden.
As well as auditions,
rehearsals and long hours of
hard work were somewhat
cumbersome. The cast of more
than 80 for each play was the
foundation of the production in
the three-day runs.
"Working strenuously for
two months, three times a week
was completely necessary to
stay on top of what was going
on. A vital part of performing a
production is paying total
attention and focusing on your
part, even if it is minor," said
junior Wendy Rightler, who
played a supportive role of a
Dreamer in Secret Garden.
Over $20,000 was essential
for completing the spectacular
sets and visual aids. Professionals choreographed the
show and designed the set.
Audiences and advertisements
in playbills paid the staggering
production bills.
"My most memorable experience was walking out on stage
the first time and seeing the
entire set surround me," said
junior Louis Ziccarelli, who

played Hany the Horse in Guys
and Dolls.

Sometimes bloopers and
slight mishaps occurred during
productions, especially during
Guys and Dolls where the hot
box dancers had to rip off their
dresses to reveal their smaller
dancing outfits.
"We were doing the show for
the elementary students, and
we weren't sure if we could take
off our dresses without getting
in trouble. We did it anyway,
and all of the hot box dancers
were worried about getting in
trouble. But, it turned out that
we didn't," said junior Sarah
Bartlett who also played a
Dreamer in the Secret Garden.
The Kenosha Performing
Arts Company offered the community entertainment and stud en ts another outlet for
expressing their acting, dancing and musical talents. Community service benefited both
performer and receiver.

he 'Last Class.' We're the
last for everything! Last
class of the centwy, last class
of traditional scheduling and
open lunch, everything!" said
sophomore Amy Romanowski.
Sophomores noticed the
good times the upcoming three
years promised while some
agreed on the best thing about
the class of 1999.
"It's really cool because we
get to enter the real world and
enter a new centwy both at the
same time," said sophomore
Andrea Belsky.
The pressure of being the
last class and its significance
began to impact sophomores.
Some of them realized that
they were among the last graduates of the centwy.
"I think that once we do it,
graduate that is, we can't turn
back or fix anything that happened in the past. We are on
the edge - the last four years of
a period of the last 996 years. It
should be of utmost importance to all of us," said sophomore Quinn Johnson.
As the end of the century
came closer, multiple changes
took place and sophomores
experienced most, if not all, of
these changes first hand.
"Sometimes it feels like we
always get the changes done to
us. Lots of things like rules
change when we're still here,"
said sophomore Annie Schultz.
From the school board's
decision to have block scheduling and open lunch just for
upperclassmen, to a prom off
limits to sophomores unless
escorted by a junior or senior,

cans, sophomore Mike Tank
was one of the many sophomores who
faced significant changes in the past
year. Like most of his classmates who
felt the changes left them up in the
air, Tank did not look forward to the
change to a new scheduling system.

sophomores found themselves
caught in a whirlwind.
"It (open lunch) is great for
us, but for the incoming classes it's not fair. Most of the
freshmen have been looking
forward to going out of the
school for lunch," said sophomore Vanessa Salemo.
Not only was the sophomore
class, which boasted 690
members, the last class set to
graduate in the millennium,
but it was the largest class
since the construction of Bradford High School. Even though
this last class bore the brunt of
most of the changes, they still
remained spirited.
'We are some of the last to
experience open lunch, traditional scheduling, and the
freshmen coming up (in the
next two years), before all the
changes take place," said
sophomore Patricia Moore.
Sophomores wondered what
effect changes would have,
never forgetting that in a mere
two years their senior class
would be the last of the decade,
the century, the millennium.

fun. People come there, and I
used to go there anyway, so
why not get a job and make
money to be there?" said
sophomore Matt Limbach.
With foods like burgers and
strawberry cheesecake shakes,
employees and customers
found themselves at a hot spot
with cool food.

oying with the danger of the
powerful Colorado River,
Mr. Teny Lawler, Mr. Paul Fennema and two other city boys ventured into the wilderness of the
Grand Canyon. The four friends
spent 16 days, July 31-Aug. 15,
sightseeing, traveling and rafting,
seeking the spectacle of the
scenery and the thrill of the ride.
"I hate to use this word, but it
was awesome," said Fennema.
Their trip started off with a
week of sightseeing at Dinosaur
National Park, Bridges National
Park and Arches National Park.
"To tell the truth, I thought the
most beautiful hikes were the
ones in Bridges, rather than the
Grand Canyon. The scenery was
absolutely unreal," said Lawler.
The South Rim of the Grand
Canyon was the starting point for
the hike down. Taking seven
hours to walk the ten miles down
to Phantom Ranch , the group
took it slowly.
"We each drank six quarts of
water thanks to the intense heat.
It went from 75 degrees on the
Rim to 101 down at the ranch. It
didn't even feel like I was sweating
on the way down; it evaporated so
quickly," said Fennema.
After resting for a day, the
experienced beginners rafted
down the Colorado River for
their second time.
"The rapids can get pretty
intense. Once, we got hung up in
a clump rocks the size of my
classroom when our oarsmen
made a bad decision. It took us 20
minutes to get out, and that was
with a couple holes. After that, we

had to dump the water out about
every eight minutes to prevent
sinking," said Lawler.
The group set up camp that
night, consisting of a small mattress padding. In the morning,
they awoke to ring tail cat tracks
and sightings of mule deer, birds,
lizards, big horn sheep, rams,
scorpions and a rattlesnake.
'The wildlife we saw just kind of
roamed around, not paying attention to us. We mostly saw tracks
rather than the actual animals,
but we did see three rams drinking together at the edge of the
river, which was unusual and
very cool. Also the birds there
were so colorful and powerful
looking," said Fennema.
Eventually, the trip came to an
end, and the group packed up to
hit the road again, allowing time
to reflect on the dangerous journey on the rapids.
"When I came home, I said,
'Rafting down the river in the
Grand Canyon was such a
rush, ' but it just didn't express
what I did. It was just impossible to verbalize the experience,"
said Fennema.
The four city natives headed
home to the hustle of everyday
life. They had seen the beauty in
nature and experienced its heartstopping thrills.

II

afting on the ferocious Colorado
River put the four-member group of
friends in the heart of the violently thrashing waves. They traveled cautiously on
down through the frothing waters of the
Grand Canyon to a pleasant end where a
helicopter awaited their anival, ready to
whisk them back to their city reality, away
from the surreal nature adventure.

MONEY

Ill.I ark, work, work! Is that all
Ill people do anymore? Why do

hard work on the few free hours
outside of normal responsibility?
And especially without pay?
"The most rewarding thing
about volunteering is giving
kids the special attention they
need without them having to
pay for it," said Mr. Peter Aiello,
who enjoyed working with kids
at the Special Olympics.
Mr. Dan Swift took part in
both the March of Dimes and
the Special Olympics.
"It is so rewarding to watch
the athletes' faces when they
cross the finish line. It doesn't
matter if they finish first or last,
they are so excited! " Swift said.
!his summer some students
and I were involved in painting
advertisements on the wall of
Simmons Baseball field.
Although the work was serious,
some hours were occupied by
paint fights and joyriding on
Simmons four wheelers. Overall,
they really enjoyed the experience and hope to do it again
next year," said Mr. Todd Hardy.
Mrs. Linda Pittari taught
Irish dancing for Irish festivals
in Chicago and Milwaukee.
"Sharing what I love to do
with someone who also enjoys it
nourishes my spirit," she said.
Helping people in trouble and
the good feeling of volunteering
led Mrs. Kathy Baas , Mrs.
Kathy Neururer and Mrs. Rita
Kauffman to join the INNS program at their respective churches. This program gave assistance to homeless people.
"In addition to INNS, with the
Kinship organization I've had a
'little sister' for over three years.

We do something together every
weekend, " Kauffman said .
Scouting was another way
to volunteer service for Mr.
Frank Falduto , Mrs. Colleen
Padlock, Mr. Paul Fennema and
Mrs. Sue Watring.
"It's so valuable spending
time with the girls in the troops.
Some of the girls have a difficult
home life. Many worthwhile
organizations would not exist
without unpaid volunteers ,"
said Watring, who is responsible for two troops.
As a blood donor and Hospice
volunteer, Mrs. Lucy Neuenschwander touched lives from
beginning to end.
"Helping others, especially
newborn babies , with blood
donation, and helping a dying
person to smile, that's an experience that goes beyond words,"
Neuenschwander said.
Precious spare time saw faculty
fulfilling heart and mind through
volunteering. From giving back to
the community, reaching out to
those in need, to enjoying children's smiles, faculty had their
own reasons to answer the call to
go above and beyond.

eachers with a flare for a
subject entertained an open
and relaxed classroom, conducive
to learning. To reach their audiences , they wore strange and
eccentric clothing, made plans to
save the world and reveled in an
eccentric spirit. They made an
impression on students.
"At first I thought it was just a
coincidence, but I started to notice
that Mr. Pozza wore a red and
blue spirit suit every Friday, when
seniors are supposed to wear
class colors. So far he hasn't forgotten to wear the suit on any Friday," said senior Deanna Dodge.
Mr . Robert Pozza's other
unusual habit led to educational conversations with his skeleton Oscar about the human
anatomy of bones and muscles.
Also, he talked to the fetal pigs
his students dissected.
"Mr. Gemmel was demonstrating a lab for my class about the
effect fire has on different materials. I blinked for a second, and
the next thing I knew, his lab
coat was on fire. I don't think I
laughed that hard in my life ,"
said senior Joe Snider.
Besides starting his coat on
fire , Mr. Douglas Gemmel had
showcased another talent, wearing his glasses above his ears.
Also, students noticed when he
wore his glasses under his safety
goggles during Chemistry labs.
"Teachers do the crazy things
they do because they want the
best for the students. I do enjoy
watching them react with students," said junior Becky Cushing.
Students could not help people-watching. Mr. Dennis Glynn
wore suspenders every single
day while Mr. Larry Negri wore a

hip holster for his VCR remote
control. Also, Mrs. Cathy Ambro
owned six different pairs of colored glasses. Showing her organized personality, Mrs . Sandy
Jacoby wore socks and watches
that matched her outfits.
"I thought that when Mr. Jerry
Cooper sang, I worked harder
because I was having a good
time," said senior Josh Mosley.
In Mr. Jerry Burrneister's classroom students could learn the
master plan to fix the world. Students also liked learning the origins of their last names.
Trying a new approach to the
Homecoming Week, Mr . Tom
Amacher nominated himself for
Homecoming Queen in his classes. Also, he practiced his acceptance speech with his class.
"At first I thought Mr. Amacher was joking, but he really
wanted to become the Homecoming Queen. Even though he
lost, I think that one of these
years he will win," said senior
James Menden.
Through the years, some teachers lost sight of the real meaning
of teaching. However, these teachers found a new approach to an
old idea, working their way into
the hearts of their students.

Ill

angling down her ear. Mrs. Debbie Frank·s earrings show that
teachers do have free spirit and can
blend in with students . Teachers won
student involvement in their classes by
wearing unusual clothing, singing and
making jokes. This made students more
receptive to learning.

the South, the
Chicago Bulls grasped a
fifth NBA championship this decade,
sending Bulls clothing sales sky high. Up north.
the Green Bay Packers boosted sportswear sales
as they clinched the NFL championship for the
first time in 30 years. Sports clothing and shoe
manufacturers, like Adidas who charged back
onto the cool scene by grabbing the soccer market,
exploded in popularity.
Nike and its stylistic swoosh covered more then
53 percent of students. 61 percent wore some type
of athletic name brand clothing, identifying with
champion teams in every sport.
"I just wear T-shirts, but I do wear team shirts
and Nike clothing," said senior Lee Slagoski.
Although many paid high prices to wear brand
sportswear, some turned to cheaper styles.
"Payless shoes are my favorite because they're
cheap, and I can buy more than one pair at a time,"
said senior Renee Schneider.
With 45 percent choosing plain "gym shoes," the
trend was between sportish style and the
practicality of comfort and
affordability.

dressed with an attitude, whether it meant dressing in or
out of touch.
"I will wear anything that is clean and hasn't been laying
n the floor for a long time," said senior Laura Kehoe.
Wearing clothes to be classified as an individual and not a
trendy person, some refused to accept the latest trends.
"You can't just kept up with only the latest trends. How can you
ress your individual personality when you wear what everyone
lse is wearing?" said junior Heather Ols.
Others agreed with individuality, but also considered comfort
a key concern.
"If I am comfortable with wearing a leisure suit, I'm going to
ear it, and I don't care what anyone says about it or me," said
ophomore Joe Potente.
However, some students found that it was important to be up

"You are not going to wear a New Kids on the Block shirt anyore. However, it is not necessary to go all out on trendiness,"

until 1924, this highly addictive, psychoactive drug slows the central nervous system and could
cause a person to go into a coma or die. Three Kenoshans, Timothy Pharr, 39, Sheri Nielsen, 30, and
David Ross, 40, died on China White heroin over a 10-day period in April.
Thomas Stumpf, 26, the supplier, was charged with first degree reckless homicide for the death of
Nielsen and sentenced Oct. 17 to 15 years in prison. Three
other men were also charged with dealing May 1 and 2.
"It's horrible. Dealers are worried about making money
and getting high, not about the people that they make sick,
addicted or dead," said senior Charlie McVay.
Heroin has made sort of a comeback. Both Sergeant Thomas Veith of the
Kenosha County Controlled Substance Unit and a Newsweek article Aug. 26,
1996, stated that heroin use has doubled locally and nationally since 1991.
Both identified the majority of users as adults, but a

1996, the first Congressional race, a seven-county district, incumbent Republican Mark Neumann ran for
reelection against Democratic challenger Lydia Spottswood. Neumann narrowly defeated Spottswood by 4, 500

Neumann's goals, again, were to balance the budget and reduce

contributions through fees collected for a university course advocating conservative views. lfltimately, Gingrich, under House Ethics
Committee investigation, apologized. Neumann and other freshmen
Republicans distanced themselves from the powerful Speaker.
Spottswood's issues centered on Medicare and Social Security
which she claimed Republicans were willing to sacrifice for a balanced budget. She claimed this harmed the elderly and assisted the
wealthy and powerful through corporate welfare.
Adding an ironic twist to election night, an unofficial final result by
a vote-counting service gave Spottswood a 5, 000-vote lead with more
than 90 percent of the vote in. The tables turned when officials realized they mistakenly had counted the city of Racine twice. Neumann
claimed a close-call victory.

July 17, 1996, at 8 :31 p .m ., 230 passengers died , including 16 high school French club
members on their way to Paris.
Departing from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, the plane exploded within minutes, 10 miles off shore on the Atlantic and 13, 700 feet in the air. Strewn
over a five-mile radius, the exploded plane left searchers combing an area of 500 miles
wide in waters 120 to 200
feet deep.
FBI agents, four helicopters, a Falcon jet, a Coast

Radar screens from a nearby test missile sight indicated a fast moving streak of light
coming toward the plane only moments before it crashed . This was indicative of a missile. Rumors of terrorism also floated around .
Flight 800 had 25 years of experience, the oldest Boeing 7 4 7 in use, but the first officer that was supposed to fly it said it was flawless and had no quirks. Still , other rumors
lingered about stored oxygen tanks that had gone bad.
Dr. Charles Wetli and his team of 10 pathologists examined the corpses concluding

Where there is smoke, there is a surefire image market for teens. Yearly, $4.8
billion spent on marketing by the tobacco indushy sucks in more teens. American Health magazine reports that since 1991 , the smoking rate among eighth and
tenth graders has risen one-third and that 22 percent of seniors smoke. Burning
a hole in their pockets, teen smokers
spend about $2.25 a pack.
"In ninth grade, my friends smoked.
They offered it to me. Eventually, I was
buying my own packs. When I figured
out that by now I could have bought a
car, I made a New Year's resolution to
quit," said junior Elisa Ortiz.
Joe Camel's cool image contrasts
with deadly accurate facts. Every year
more than 400,000 people die of smoking related diseases, more than AIDS,
alcohol, car accidents, cocaine, crack,
heroin , murders and suicide combined. These staggering statistics are
smoke-screened by an animated icon known to more preschoolers than Mickey
Mouse. By summer, Joe Camel's icon disappeared from ads.
"Everybody has to go sometime. I'm going with a cigarette in my mouth. When
you have a smoker in your family, you want to hy it," said junior Mike Stanford.
Later he added that he did plan to quit.
A campaign to prevent kids from smoking produced President Clinton's ban on
outdoor advertising within 1,000 feet of schools and the American Cancer Society's Great American Smokeout on Nov. 21. On April 9 a new policy subjected
students smoking on school grounds to a police ticket along with normal school
consequences of one day suspension. Teachers like Ms. Wanchalee Pochanayon
rewarded TEAMs with Blo-Pops for not smoking or quitting for a day.

"We enhance our awareness of others in their human condition and

At school, students strived to reach
across boundaries with activities like

numerous hours examining the issue.
Jimenez, who was on a committee to
encourage an increase in Hispanic
graduation rates, sent out 50 smveys
asking how Hispanics can do better in
school. The majority of students simply
wrote, "go to class and do your work,"
on their smveys.

Dealing with Drugs
"Richard Peck made a big dlfl'erence. I
wu supposed to go to a party and get wasted again.
Because of him, I stayed with a friend, far away from the
party, drinkf.nl coffee and converaing. Ever since his
talk, I haven't taken anything. He helped me
because I uaed to be a drug addict and I
recently started using again. I don't want to
become an addict like Mr. Peck wu. After
he spoke, I didn't want anything to do
with drugs or alcohol," aaid an
anonymous student on a
questionnaire about Richard
Peck, who spoke about the
effects of drugs.

A RealH-y Check

poster confiscated by the
Kenosha Police Gang Unit
reveals the presence of
white supremacists. The Gang
Unit pointed out the red suspenders and boot laces identify
Nazi skinheads, supporters of
annihilation of all nonwhite races.

haking up students with a real life story
about trading houses to afford drugs,
Richard Peck, a Tremper alumnus, awakened
them to the horrors of drugs and alcohol.
"His story was real. It hurt to see myself turning into what he'd become," said one anonymous
sophomore on a questionnaire.
Peck spoke about his start with alcohol at age
11. In high school, Peck also started using drugs,
even though he wrestled, boxed, played football
and ran track.
"It started for fun, but I crossed the line. After
that, reasons were no longer social," said Peck.
Later, Peck dealt and used cocaine. His addiction left him spending $500 on cocaine in one
night. Although he cringed at the thought of needles, Peck still shot up to get high.
'The cocaine made me so paranoid! I checked
for bombs in my car, I frisked everyone that came
into my house, I heard voices, and I woke up in

sweats often," he added. "It was a nightmare, but
I kept doing it, and I did anything to get it."
Peck decided he could no longer live the way he
had. He changed for "my little girl," his young
daughter. He was "mentally, and spiritually broke
and wanted to die." Taking his daughter's piggy
bank money for drugs forced his realization.
Do speakers like Peck make a difference?
"My reaction was shocked, although no one
ever got my attention before, not even my dad, he
did. I thought I needed to sell drugs to survive but
now I'm going to find a job and keep up with my
basketball career," said another anonymous student on a questionnaire.
"He made me think about how drugs and alcohol affect the lives of friends and family, not just
the person doing drugs and alcohol. His honesty
made me realize what my dad went through
before he died," said another anonymous student
on a questionnaire.

To single out racial tension,
two assemblies confronted culture. The
first, "Roots," an 8th hour assembly
dealing with African American heritage,
brought history to life.
"The singing, dancing, and small
speeches intertwined to make a unique
presentation that minority and nonminority alike should have seen," said
junior Krishanda Crim.
The other, "Vice Versa," placed
African American and Caucasian students into shoes with a different point of
view. Each group, Ebony Nation and
United White Nation played examples of
extremists of the opposite race.
'Tm used to being what I believe, not
racist. Playing the role of a racist showed
me how different everyone is, but no
matter the race, no one is better than
anyone else," said junior Marta Palomo.
Although racism usually brought
uncomfortable silence in "Vise Versa"
and "Roots," it had the audience on their
feet, expressing their disapproval of the
hate portrayed on stage.

Evoking sympathy, but even more
so, compassion, junior Wendy
Rightler acted out a piece about a
teenage girl in a wheelchair. The
story, which was modeled after a
piece Rightler had written, displayed
the lack of acceptance found inside
and outside of school.

my character, and after playin g

junior Wendy Rightler

With a red line down the middle of a half
black, half white painted stage, those of
different height, sex, age, religion, and
background related their stories of hate and lack of tolerance
experienced when in their shoes. Drama II's play, "Only
Human," showed realistic, everyday occurrences that happened and didn't make a person think twice.
"My piece about being Hispanic was different. I had to
really study it before I understood it because I'm not Hispanic. I am always aware of prejudices because of my
background, but this made me aware even if I didn't realize I was doing it," said sophomore Angela Kreuser. "We
didn't do this just for publicity to say we were tackling tolerance; we did it to make a difference."
A man with cerebral palsy, Norman Kunc, lead an
assembly about lack of tolerance of another kind. Kunc,
who spoke about striving ahead to reach his goals, became
a public speaker and a doctor in Humanities.
"It helped me realize the trials a disabled person faces, but
I didn't feel pity for him at all. He's accomplished so much
despite his disability. I think I was more happy for him," said
sophomore John Litrell.
Tolerance issues, set in front of teens this year more than any
other, examined the reality that tolerance applies to more than race.

to others, then you can see disadvantages and learn new, better ways
to correct them," said Alexey Bermishev from Kazakhistan.
Wisconsin was, of course, different from their home countries, but
exchange students seemed to thrive
on all these differences.
"In Germany, people just come to
school and then go home. Here they
get more involved; they stay for activities. I think that's great," said
Susanne Fiege.
As the year ended, exchange students sorted through events and
opinions, like Rodichev's view of people, "smiley, closer to each other."
"I can't wait to go home; I want to
tell everyone about all I've experienced here, like Drama Club's

They're different, of course, but it's
amazing to see how similar everyone

DECISIONS
t
m

ime for students to relax and let
another year pass by? Wrong!
Time for the student body to wake
up and think about their futures.
Opening the doors, Career and College Day, held Nov. 6, promoted colleges and career choices to students
who needed to make those decisions.
"It helped me by letting me cut
down to UW-Milwaukee, Carthage
and Marquette as colleges and law
as the career I want to pursue," said
senior Chrissy Prevost.
Participants from 85 occupations
and 36 colleges offered students a
multitude of career and educational
opportunities.
"It gave me an overall idea of what
colleges offer my intended major. It
also gave me an idea how large the
job market is for graphic art design.
At the booth for screen printing, it
seemed so easy and exciting," said
junior Lori Abruscato.
Occupational areas like art therapy, police science and horticulture
exposed students to fields never
before considered.
"I've already signed up and visited
a tech-college in Illinois to become a
contractor with air ventilation, such
as heating and air conditioning. At

this school you can earn certification
within seven months, compared to

used Career and College Day to form

school and field representatives to
financial aid forms.

makes the world go
round. Seniors raced to qualify for,
and receive, scholarship money.
"I think that scholarships are a lot
of work. I got a full scholarship for
four years for Carthage, and besides
having to fill out a ton of forms, I
wrote an argumentative essay. However, I feel that if you work hard to
get the scholarship, you have earned
it," said senior Cheryl Pataska.
Just like careers and colleges,
scholarships targeted all types of
interests and special students. Some
scholarship qualifications included
specific criteria ranging from
descent, such as Hispanic or Italian,
to asthmatic athlete.
"More scholarships should be
offered for the less fortunate and

definite
uncertainty
individuals who are not scholars,"
said junior Jessica Ahem-Pye.
Scholarship search services provided students lists of private and
financial aid sources whose requirements they met.
"Although the scholarship process
is an asset, I believe that they are not
awarded fairly. The same people get
all the scholarships and full rides,
while all the others struggle to meet
tuition," said senior Tara Pfeifer.
Of 60 seniors swveyed, 40 percent approved of the current scholarship process while another 40 percent viewed scholarships as too
much wor~. As the field of competition increased, students worked
harder to pursue valuable scholarship money to meet the rising costs
of tuition, books and board.

declined their constitutional right.
"It's sad that people don't vote for
change. I want more to be done on
drunk driving, guns and drugs in
our schools. Voting can help stop
abuse. We all need to make that difference," said senior Kim Kelps.
Politicians held the power to modify issues in bills and amendments
by obtaining opinion polls. Based on
poll results, politicians then establish a base level for what citizens
want done.
"My concern lies in welfare reform,
medical insurance development and
unorganized labor expansion," said
senior Randy Kozel.
Voters demanded tougher regula-

responded by signing a bill that
restricted tobacco companies' advertising this spring.
"Anyone 18 or older has a right to
vote because they take the responsibility of adulthood in serious stuff
like alcohol and smoking. I can
change an issue that I disagree with
by voting; opinions do count," said
senior Tim Preston.
While not yet of legal voting age,
students cast a ballot during a
school-wide mock election which
predicted national results the week
before. Although some of voting age
chose not to exercise rights in elections, active voters' voices, just like
in U.S. Government class, dominated the political scene.

hat about candidates' background? Who should people
vote for? Government teachers suggested students read articles, check
backgrounds and watch speeches
before casting votes, either in a mock
or real election, for a candidate.
"I watched 1V ads and read newspaper articles to get to know the candidates and the issues they stood for.
Based on that information, I decided
who was most qualified and represented my interest the best," said
senior Andrea Forgianni.
Challenging Clinton and straying
from rightists, the Republican Party
ticket of Dole-Kemp stood for believing in the unity of government and
its ability to solve problems.
"I believe if Dole became president
he would do what he thought was
right and not what was right for the
people," said senior Shantae Bell.
As the forty-second and fortythird youngest Chief Executive,
incumbent Bill Clinton retained Al
Gore as his running mate. While on
the campaign circuit, Clinton pointed out that job availability increased
while both welfare and crime rates
declined during his first term.

"I support Clinton because he is
free thinking and liberal, and I'm a
Democrat because I support the
rights of the middle and lower classes," said senior Randy Kozel.
The Reform Party ticket consisted
of Ross Perot and Pat Choate. Final
Electoral College results made Clinton the winner with 351 votes followed by Dole and Perot with 236
and 130 votes, respectively.

P roud of his country, President Bill Clinton recites the Pledge of Allegiance at

BLOCK PLAN
a

s a building organization that
made decisions which impacted both students and faculty, the
Tremper Advisory Council members
discussed issues ranging from
money to block scheduling. The very
makeup of members, including students, parents, staff and administrators pooled various views.
'The TAC made the final selection
of the block schedule for next year.
We discussed start times, closed or
open lunch for juniors and seniors,
teaching strategies, and staff input
into the hiring of new teachers," said
art teacher Debbie Frank.
Early in the year, the TAC received
notification of a $20,000 Board
grant. Swarmed with proposals, TAC
sorted through 200 and allocated
money for both scholarships and
multimedia equipment.
'The TAC decided to use the student achievement grants to improve
shared computer and media equipment to help the school meet the
challenge of the new block schedule," said parent Cathy Bothe.

TAC makes
crucial decision
Of the different areas the Council
dealt with, students approached the
improvement aspect frequently.
'We could use more in-put from
students, parents, teachers and
community members. More concerns like laptop computers for
check-out could be dealt with if we
had more people telling us of their
concerns," said senior Emily Koster.
As a group that met biweekly and
welcomed the input, the TAC made
decisions affecting students and staff
and allocated money.

ere unnerving horror stories
about block scheduling
causing students to lose sleep?
Sophomore, junior and senior registration meetings eased tension for
students and parents after they
heard more information about statistics dealing with block scheduling.
The 4X4 block selected allowed
students to take four one-credit
classes during each 18-week semester, totaling eight in 36 weeks. District officials felt that with fewer
classes each semester students
would focus their mental energies

four classes in
block schedule
more efficiently. Eight credits per
year also allowed credit-deficient
students to graduate on time.
"I think that fewer classes at a
time will allow students to learn
about those subjects in greater
depth," said senior Andrea Forgianni, a member of the advisory council.
Through evening informational
sessions, students and parents
learned that 90-minute blocks were
intended to increase teacher contact
through fewer total students per day.
On the year though, teachers would
teach six block classes for more students than the five traditional 55minute class periods.
"I have had the same schedule format ever since seventh grade. Block
scheduling will present a reasonable
change for us," said sophomore
Andrew Shama.
Students verified block selections
for the '97-'98 school year in June
while faculty learned how to modify
lesson plans. Administrators ironed

With the $20 per student allocation,
the school bought two multimedia
carts. Each included a full audiovisual system, a VCR and a laser disc
player. Additionally, teachers
received check-out privileges to four
Apple and three IBM laptop computers. Some students disagreed with
these money allocations.
"With the money, I would buy new
lockers because some of the lockers
can't be opened," said sophomore
Karen Irving.

students to enter the program.

me become more focused on school. I
used to get all Fs, now I get As and
Bs. I never got As before I was in
Bridges," said junior Jodi Kimpel.
Although Bridges students
worked on the same subjects as
those in regular classes, class environments differed greatly in both
structure and attitude. Also, students worked at their own paces,
without the constriction of deadlines.
"Bridges is like one big family,
everyone helps each other out. You
get one-on-one help from your teachers," said junior Cindi Andrews.
Through Bridges' alternate gym

Renaissance, a series of a recognition and

"I really enjoyed becoming involved with
incentive programs and sharing my ideas
about new. innovative methods for keeping
students interested," said senior Randy Kozel.
Besides trying new ideas to get students
involved, reps had much demanded of them.
"I learned leadership and responsibility not
only by advising the sophomore representatives, but by watching my advisers and fellow
reps," said senior Justin Banaszynski.
The Renaissance program stressed three
major goals; to emphasize academic excellence,
to recognize and reward student achievement.
and to recognize and reward staff excellence.

To be chosen for Quill and Scroll, student
journalists performed outstanding work for a
school publication and ranked in the top third
academically. A banquet at the Fireside honored
members. Benefits from membership went
beyond the initial honor to experience.
"Quill and Scroll recognized my work hard
and independence in yearbook. My parents were
so proud to see me present our All American

Scholastic Press to Dr. Pulaski that night." said
senior Teresa Silguero.
National Honor Society membership was a
prestigious honor for those with academic commitment and discipline. Members maintained a
3.5 GPA. Self motivation was an important factor in obtaining induction into Honor society.
"Basically, I was motivated by two things: to
wear an NHS graduation stole and to put it on
college applications. I did this for myself." said
junior Allison Saarela.
Those honored showed hard work and commitment paid off in recognition.

"It's a tradition. Ever since I was a little girl, my

Over 30 elite singers from Tremper and Bradford teamed up to entertain members of the community as well as people from out of state.
"People can just get away from eve:rything. The
Feaste hall doesn't look anything like today's
world, and people can sit there, listen to the
music, and become part of a different time," said
junior Mike Frieman.
A production of such magnitude required a lot
of time and effort, but the results were justifiable.
"I learned a lot about music, and I gained a lot
of friends from Bradford. It's probably an experience that I'll never have again and I'll always
remember," said Frieman.
Displaying camaraderie and a passion for performing, the Madrigals were able to meet and surpass all expectations.
"I thought eve:rything was just really well done.
Everyone in it was really close this year, and I
think this one was one of the best years of Madrigal singing and performing," said Reinke.
As the Feaste drew to a close, the Madrigals
held their heads high in the recessional after a
dignified, professional performance.

Everything has it's perks, as mus1c1ans
found out. From practices to only a little time in
the limelight, musicians found a dressed up
bonus watching from their post.
"People come because of the variety of the
entertainment. It's not just one group performing,
and we get to see and be a part of it all!" said
senior strings musician Jenni Mundell.
Musicians, whether harpsichord or recorder,
possessed mutual respect for each other, realizing
that each group was vital to the total success of
Feaste. Completing the sixteenth century atmosphere with performances before the processional,
between acts and during the dining of various
courses, everyone from strings to brass played
olden songs of yore that would live on in the hearts
of everyone who came.

Magic and darkness haunted
the gaily decorated hall. Whimsical music filled
the air, suggesting a past time. Seventeen
somber fencers stood at attention, saluting a
steady stream of Madrigal Singers. who led
another 150 performers. Ah, the festivities of a
Christmasse Feaste.
"We mocked and made fun of all the other performers. You could say that the fencers our are
favorite. We mocked their fencing with spoons
and forks," said sophomore jester Paul Bothe.
Whether jesters jesting or actors acting out
medieval lore students showed off their special
talents or learned new ones.
"I learned how to juggle with six clubs and 600
degree torches, which was and absolute rush,"
said junior juggler Tim Overocker.
In brilliantly colored costumes and haughty
accents, performers showed off their skills. Jug-

glers juggled everything from bats to Koosh balls
while fencers fought good against evil or male
against female. Every group of performers practiced for long hours for weeks before the four
nights of Dec. 12 to Dec. 15. Performances were
sold out to a public who flocked to experience
and be a part of a bygone era.
"On Friday night the audience clapped along
with the music, which has never happened to us
before," said senior Irish Dancer Kelly McCarthy.
From tumblers energizing the crowd with flips
and twists to litterbearers carrying in a boar's
head, students made a real life medieval production successful and complete.
"What makes it such a big success is that
there are so many talented kids in school
involved in so many ways," said sophomore
fencer Amanda Haselton.
Kids getting involved became performers in a
show filled with everything from jigs to jabs. Festivity reigned and crowned everyone king or
queen of the Feaste of fun . .

for others, it is a passion. Nearly 200 members
of the Concert, Treble, and A Cappella Choirs
performed in the 33rd annual winter and spring
choral concerts.
"A lot of times we'll do a hard piece of music,
and you look it over and think you can't do it.
But when you actually do accomplish it, it's a
really neat feeling," said senior Heidi Hackemer.
One hard piece was Bach's Cantata #142,
"Uns Ist Ein Kind Geboren," performed by A

Cappella Choir and the Symphony Orchestra
Strings on Dec. 5. Student teacher Richard
Tobias conducted each choir in one song.
"The spring concert is special because it's the
last concert for many of us. It was extra special
to me because I did the solo in "Ain't Got Time
to Die," just like my dad did his senior year,"
said senior Vinnie Zarletti.
The June 4 spring concert also featured a special medley from the musical "Les Miserables."
As the concert drew to a close, it was a time to
honor and say farewell to senior members.

"It's a nice change of pace. The little kids
respond more than normal audiences," said
senior Carrie Henry.
After preview performances, the choirs put
on shows for the public Oct. 19-20.
"People relate to songs they know from
movies," said junior Craig Granger.
Concert appearances at Carthage College

choir experiences would not be forgotten.

r---Playing to a new fiddle was not easy for
orchestra members, but change floated in the air.
Many changes came to Symphonic Orchestra in
the form of new programs, new opportunities and
new conductor David Schripsma, who also continued as Bradford orchestra director.
"It was great having a new teacher. We needed
some new blood, and Mr. Schripsema definitely
brought that," said senior Aprille Meinhardt.
From a new conductor to a new program, students who were in Honors Orchestra received
honors credit for participating in extra music
activities. Some competed in Solo Ensemble or
participated in the Schubert Festival.
"Honors orchestra was a good idea for me
because I already did a lot of extra curricular. I got
credit for my GPA without having to do a lot more
than usual," said senior Charlie Williams.
Honors Orchestra or no, students performed in
five concerts and played pieces by composers as
diverse as Mozart to Andrew Lloyd Webber.
"I loved playing "Phantom of the Opera" at
Orchestra Festival. I know the audience loved it
too, because it was a break from the usual classical music we play," said junior Karen Berretti.
At the Spring concert, three senior soloists were
featured, one of the many changes. From September to June, it was all about new ideas, new memories and new songs.

Strings often played on weekends and school
nights with the same heart warming results.
"Once during a performance I serenaded a little
boy in a wheelchair. He was shy, but I could tell he
really loved it," said junior Shawna Lehmann.
Strings traveled to Atlanta to introduce the program to schools there and teach them to stroll.
'The Atlanta trip was unforgettable - except for
the long bus ride!" said junior Jon Bernhardt.
Strings lightened the atmosphere by trimming
rehearsals to one per week. Back in stride,

Upholding tradition, 1,500 students gathered

"Five, six, seven, eight, and stop! Do
that again," After camp in Milwaukee with 12hour dance days, Trojanettes practiced back
home in the Commons. Specializing in halftime
performances of football and basketball games,
members had to be dedicated. In addition, they
gave a dance clinic for girls in grades 1 to 9 on
Nov. 23.
'Tue clinic was hard with a lot of little girls, but
that's also what made it fun," said sophomore
Amanda Hoselton.
In the annual State Wide Dance Competition,
they placed second.
"Placing was a thrill. We did a good dance and
beating Bradford was just an added bonus," said
sophomore Amy Romanowski.
Long hours and bruised knees aside, Trojanettes entertained and energized with choreographed dances to popular songs like "Shake,
Pop, Down," "Jump," and "Space Jam" from the
fall sports assembly to the Variety show.

"GO, GO! G-0, G-0! Let's Go! We're No.

l!" Cheerleaders charged students who attended

either the football or basketball games.
There were two different squads for the football
and basketball season. Each cheerleader had her
own personal favorite sport to cheer for.
"Football is definitely much more fun to cheer
for, because it seems like we are right there, on the
field playing right along with the team," said junior
captain Amber Redlin.
To raise the level of school spirit, the squad
formed the Cheerleading Revival Committee.
"We sponsor halftime games, and we throw
candy to the crowd. We just want more people to
come to the games and cheer for their school,"
said sophomore Paige Porter.
Dealing without any school funds, this squad
continued to cheer on the school's athletes.

Back and better than ever. The Varsity
Club was the school's version of the Letterman's
Club. Membership requirements were to have lettered in at least one sport and attend the meetings.
"It was a good club to be in because everyone
got along with each other for good clean fun," said
sophomore Nick Bentz.
Varsity Club tailgated at football games such as
the home game against Racine Park on Oct. 15.
Food, raffles and games highlighted the event.
'Tue tailgating was fun. I won Pepsi bean bags in a
sports challenge," said senior Jenni Mundell.
Such events were rewards for athletes who
played hard and wanted to party harder.

"After they announced tenth and ninth place, I

thing about being in New Voice," said sophomore
Jeff Anhock.
Spinning out everything from soul to rap, members of New Voice got a chance to learn and at the
same time have fun.
"As a foreign exchange student, I wanted to get
to know people. Being a disc jockey sounded interesting, and it enabled me to be a part of the Blood
Drive dance, Homecoming's bonfire, and a volleyball game, not just an observer," said Yuk-Fan
Jason Yen.
Attending school events and supplying the
music that got the crowd pumped were hits with
New Voice. Live video-cam, jammin' popular
tunes, and interacting with the audience made
New Voice Radio a hit themselves.

promoting school spirit. Planning for Homecoming activities began during the summer.
"My favorite thing about Student Congress is
decorating for the Homecoming Dance unW late
in the evening or early in the morning, however
you wish to look at it," said senior Zoe Frank.
Besides its usual activities, such as the
Homecoming Dance and the Blood Drive, Student Congress also sponsored a Halloween
activity for TEAM students during the Fall.
"We held a Pumpkin Carving Contest right
before Halloween. Students carved and decorated pumpkins in their TEAMs. Then Student
Congress members chose the ones we thought
were the best," said junior Chavelle Chatman.
Congress' Toy Drive at Christmas reached the
community as well. Dances to donations, Student Congress voted for service and fun.

Both

others and understand different cultures. YAHOO
focused on aiding the community with projects
from beach cleanup, Day of Caring, Earth Day,
Walk America to Special Olympics.
"YAHOO has gotten over one hundred students
to get involved and help people less fortunate than
themselves. I loved the happy faces of the Special
Olympians," said junior Roxanne Glista.
Rather than focusing on helping individuals,
the Model Organization of American States and
the Model United Nations (OAS-UN), focused on
understanding changing countries.
"At the UN conference we represented Zimbabwe. We learned the African clap which we used at
the general assembly meeting. In subcommittee
we discussed peace between Rwanda and Zaire,"
said senior Rebecca Hornik.
Though focuses differed, both groups worked to
improve their world through understanding.

said VICA president senior Mike Fitch.
Members of VICA also sold wooden reindeer

Another club that took pride in providing

the On-the-Job Training program, OJT, and
made lunches for faculty once a month. Some
competed in food service contests.
"We made sandwiches for judges. We were
scored on how it was presented and how it

From repairs in the school like the trophy
case to competing in Parliamentary Procedure,
these groups handled the heat of each job,

students for the responsibility and leadership

Students who correctly answered a Biblical question won the opportunity to throw a whipped

Besides the fun factor, members saw the club

As during any normal day, participants attended their classes. After hearing the Grim Reaper's
knock on their door, "victims" exited to change
clothing and don pale makeup. The rest of the day
the "dead" remained unresponsive.
"While I was the Grim Reaper, I walked in on a
classroom and scared the sub. I made him jump
two feet off the floor," said junior Tim Overocker.
For a new twist, two members of the faculty,
Ms. Ellen Kupfer and Mr. Terry Lawler, "died."

they sponsored like it would influence the student

hopping sprees at Gurnee Mills danced through
filled out job applications. • Near or far, teens
eep up with consistent fads. Trips south to Illiuent, even with the seven percent sales tax. From
Gurnee, to Contempo Casuals at Hawthorne Mall
Hills, state lines did not discourage brave shopn the lunch beat, selection was never a problem.
'etexcitement of lunch time ran through the halls
efore 5th and 6th periods. Passareli's Pizzeria
ed the craving for homemade Italian, gnocchi and

and McDonald's were always busy, and Subway
the desire for a sandwich that did not taste like

Matt Rizzo. Opinions on PDA varied from thinking it was natural to
thinking it was disgusting. But

1ed down with school and a
time consuming part-time job? But
really it's those Doc Martin's that
are tying teens down with a $105
price tag! Besides just wearing
shoes, some chose to have a more
"personal" relationship with their
footwear. "Shoes should state who
you are. You and your shoes should
be ONE. I would marry mine," said
sophomore Lynnsey Dousette. Still
trendy, some chose a more economical set of feet.

long with the new studentfriendly Commons came six new
machines donated by Pepsi, that
quenched the thirst of students
instantly. "Pepsi is sweeter than
Coke and goes down easier. I prefer soda because it's more convenient and tastes better than water,"
junior Brian Logsdon. But bottled
water even followed the caffeinated trend. Water Joe, the bottled caffeinated water, supplied as much
caffeine as a cup of coffee.

not target many guy products,
opinions about the opposite sex

Your Ideas Make a Difference
In 1919, an innovative young man named Joe Johnson had an
idea for a new kind of wrench, consisting of sockets that could
"snap on" to various handles. His employer rejected the idea -as can happen with new ideas.
Determined to turn his idea into reality, Joe and a co-worker set
off on their own and started a business to make wrenches with
interchangeable sockets and sell them to mechanics. The new
idea caught on, the two moved to Kenosha and, with a lot of
hard work, the company grew.
Today, Snap-on is known around the world for its array of
quality hand tools, power tools, diagnostics, shop equipment
and tool storage products for the professional automotive techn1c1an.
Snap-on encourages you to pay attention to your ideas. Act on
them. You and your ideas can make a difference. Snap-on
applauds the Class of 1997 and its ideas!
"Ideas won't keep. Something must be done about them. "

Amanda was an honor roll student while
at Lance and at Tremper. She had been
awarded a competitive-out-of-state scholarship to attend New Mexico Highlands
--...----. University in Las Vegas,
New Mexico, where she
planned to study
Biology. It was her
dream to have a
future career as a
National Park Ranger. She enjoyed
being outdoors,
hiking, camping
and backpacking.

--·I'!.

While at Tremper she was
studying both French and
Spanish, sure that knowing
these languages would help
her communicate better with
visitors to our national
parks.
Her last semester she volunteered as a teacher's aide for Ms.
Kay Krause. Mrs. Colleen
Padlock, her Spanish teacher,
nominated her for inclusion in
Who's Who Among American
High School Students. During

her sophomore year Amanda had been
a student manager for the Boys and
Girls Swim Team, earning her letter
and her numerals .
She spent Saturdays as a life guard
and swim instructor at Kenosha Youth
Foundation. As an instructor, she
enjoyed success helping young children
overcome their reluctance
towards learning
new skills.
Wherever
Amanda went, she
did positively touch
the lives of others. She will
always be greatly
missed.

Congratulations on being the only tennis
player in Tremper's history to qualify all
four years for the state tournament in
singles. We love you and wish you the best
of luck with your
bright future,
you deserve it.
